How come this place is so slow?

[capncnut]

Yesterday was the slowest it has ever been for me, truly awful. Glad it's all been ironed out. Aye the forum was running slow for me as well earlier, so I gave up and watched some porn instead...then Top Gear...which is another kind of porn. Shhh. Some fit birds might be reading.

Capn - meh, gimme some poon and I'll put down the porn. Yesterday's slow down wasn't the worst I've experienced, it was slow at loading the details, but it wasn't as slow as I've had it before - when it flat out can't load anything and you just get total error messages.

Capn - meh, gimme some poon and I'll put down the porn. C'mon MZ, you're Scottish! Get yer ass up to Glasgow for a holiday. The last time I went up there, I hung me cock out for a piss up a bank machine in Saucihall Street and I had to fight off six mouths from trying to nosh me there and then. I love dem Glaswegian women.

All fixed now... No it ain't mate. This place has been a NIGHTMARE to navigate this morning.

Geeeeeezus the forum is slow right now, it's worse than being punched in the balls. Come on VBB, pull a finger out your socket and get wide on your bandwidth or something... Yes, I always get this arsy when a computer pisses me off.

Well I never, isn't HPotD speedy today... NOT!

Well I never, isn't HPotD speedy today... NOT! Fine for me... IS!

[capncnut]

As per usual, it sorts itself out after 30 mins or so but at 13.00 it took me 3 attempts to get in.

Just out of curiosity, is the server for HpotD "across the pond" as we from the USA like to say? If so, that might be a reason for some slight lag (which I experience from time to time too). I can say, however, that most of the time HPotD is a tad slower than other sites I visit, but not enough to frustrate me. It is what it is, and I deal with it... for now. When can we get HPotD hard-wired directly into our brainstem? LC

Well I'm not complaining today 'cos it's been real zippy.

[Danny]

actually,yeah it has been a fair bit faster today.

[capncnut]

Yes in terms of zip, it does appear this forum has had a shower, shave, cup of coffee and a cigarette.

[Danny]

i would have said "shower,**** an-a shave" but yeah i know what you mean, though my whole connection screwed up earlier ,god knows why.

[MinionZombie]

Connections just randomly screw up sometimes, my connection screwed up t'other day and just refused to connect, but then after about 20 minutes of swearing and flapping my arms in front of the monitor, it connected. I guess VBB has days when it goes slow ... the forum's "lady's days" I guess, lol ...

[capncnut]

This morning... slow, slow, SLOW!!!
